Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

On 9 and 23 May we offered readers the chance to win tickets to a charity preview of Sunset Boulevard. Entrants were asked to give pounds 1 to the charities concerned (the Samaritans and Riding for the Disabled) and to tell us who was Gloria Swanson's co-star in the film (William Holden); who wrote the book for the musical (Christopher Hampton); and when Andrew Lloyd Webber last had a new show in London (1986 - Phantom of the Opera). The winner was E Pestell of Whitley Bay; pounds 266 was raised. Many thanks to all who entered.
